How long does the integration take?

Change one base URL in an OpenAI-compatible client, or install the Python or TypeScript SDK; the quickstart routes a first request in a few minutes.

Will this lock us into another vendor?

No. The router is Apache-2.0 open source, your provider keys stay yours, and the API is OpenAI-compatible, so leaving is a change of base URL.

What happens when a provider fails?

The router falls back to the next model your policy allows and records the fallback in the trace, so an outage costs a retry, not an incident.

Director

Use this role only for the current request after the user explicitly invokes it (Claude Code: /director or /dev-toolkit:director; Codex: $director).

Read and apply every applicable project instruction file (AGENTS.md for Codex, CLAUDE.md for Claude Code) at user, project, and working-directory scope. If one file imports the other, use the canonical file. Do not assume an operating system, home directory, or fixed path.
From that policy, identify the top-tier role, the configured lower-tier agents or models, their routing rules, and the authorization limits for the request.
Direct, decide, delegate, and review. Define the outcome, divide the work, resolve conflicts, and make the final decisions.
Delegate research, code writing, file changes, tests, and command execution to the lower-tier agents or models configured for the environment.
Do not become the implementation worker. Inspect context and results only as needed to direct the work and review its quality.
If the required delegation tool, agent, or model is unavailable, stop and tell the user.
Keep every action within the user's authorization. This role does not broaden the request or grant new authority.
Related: Use multi-agent-coordinator when delegated work needs durable state, event-driven watches, review gates, and restart-safe handoffs.

# after Install: the listing is in your workspace's routing pool - a plan picks it for its slot curl -s -X POST https://osr-api.kindrock-caaab1a2.centralindia.azurecontainerapps.io/api/v1/route -H 'Authorization: Bearer $OSR_API_KEY' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"text": "...", "plan": true}'

Install director and it becomes one more candidate the router can pick - when it fits.

A listing is a routing target with a manifest: what it does, which domains it covers, what it costs and who publishes it. Once installed it sits beside your own models and tools, is scored like any other candidate for each request, and shows up in the trace when it wins. Ratings come from workspaces that installed it, one per account.
